TheGrimm.5624 Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 I still believe that this was all originated from a plan for an expansion which was later dumped after management changed, which was later restarted after another directional change from whatever source. If you have ever worked in project management you know well the dread of scope creep. That said, wonder if we couldn't use this space to still brainstorm. To those that have been in WvW style games that used alliance based systems, what tools did and didn't work for you in managing the alliance itself? I think we have a broad view of alliances in general but I don't feel we left the conversion a couple of years ago with clear pictures on how multiple guilds would manage their group of individual guilds and how the management of the alliance would work. In particular in forming and dissolving portions of an alliance. We know ANet was planning on auto-filling them to a degree for non-alliance people and guilds, but what about conflict resolution? So since it would fill both the role of keeping the question of 'when and what' alive, what is the forum goers picturing and what helped or hindered in the past and what do you see as role of the alliance and how does it management features look like to you?

I think I would be more open to brainstorming if the devs say anything. They're absence for so long on this topic does not motivate me to start throwing ideas out for no one but other players to hear. That said, your optimism is a little inspiring. I almost wanted to join in. I hope other players are in a better place with this than me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamikharzeeh.8016 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 allijances wh3en? btw did anyone realise how the NPCs in the new episode talk about "alliances" ahaha. i felt honestly a bit pranked. hope's still up that they plan something for the release of End of Dragons DLC. not a big hope tho. also see guys, i'd totally be willing to work out this for Anet if i'd work for them, but creating waterproof concepts without getting paid is something pretty questionable. you'd also always need ppl that u can contact to ask "can this work alike", which we here do not have. best communication u may get is a warning for offtopics thaha.

vonhellsing.2819 Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 If ANET already corrects the problems of hack, lag, lagskill, better rewards for WVW players, at least equivalent to PVP, include benefits to the server that is leading WVW in the skirmish , like buff (which really BENEFITS DROP from RARE ITEMS, PATCHES and ASCENDED, skins). I would be very happy already. It is very difficult to sustain a character with WVW rewards, a pvp player makes a lot of gold in one season, completes tickets and legendary items faster than WVW.

Marcel.1857 Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 After today (anet just forgot to relink) i doubt that the alliances may come in future. They just talking as it seems but either there will be a new game with an working alliances and wvw before i could think of anet doing something for an unique gamemode (show me one game that has a similare mode) or i quit the game and start to play something the devs take care off. No updates, if i would do that at my work..... All updates (the 1 or 2) so far are in my eyes "sorry we are anet and well, we talk a lot and well, we have it on the plans for the 2020's" it may come within the decad.

FallenBishop.3167 Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 If they can't even do the lazy relinks they do every two months, can you imagine this incompetent company doing anything half as sophisticated as alliances? Highly doubt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcel.1857 Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 > @"allshallperish.4620" said: > relink poggers yeah just is proof of what anet thinks of the game mode and also a prove that it never happens. i mean how the f* can you forget a relink. (at least make a quick post in twitter or what ever msger you prefer telling; due to some eating events we wont make it this week and will do it next week).

vier.1327 Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 The system works so well that new relinking is not necessary. You should not be worried about it, Arenanet knows what is doing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calisanna.8732 Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 With all the confusion circling today’s relinks- I think we may have forgotten about the real timing issue! It’s not “relinks when” it’s “alliances when” When is the 2yr 3yr 20yr birthday. I can’t remember how long it’s been Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valelutra.9128 Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 I wonder if Anet even reads the forums anymore. I feel like they don’t much care to communicate on many avenues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
